About My Clients

We all have difficulties in life that arise from time to time that becomes a little overwhelming and causes us to feel some anxieties, confusion, depression and just not the self we are looking for. You are not alone in this and through therapy we work together to help you start to feel like the you that is inside.

My Background and Approach

My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can talk openly about what’s weighing on you and begin creating meaningful change. Together, we’ll work to better understand the challenges you’re facing, develop practical tools to manage stress and anxiety, build confidence, and help you move toward a life that feels more balanced and fulfilling. I am a licensed counselor serving individuals in North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Massachusetts, Utah, and Arizona. Since earning my Master’s degree in Professional Counseling from Liberty University in 2011, I have helped individuals work through anxiety, stress, life transitions, and other personal challenges. When I’m not working with clients, you’ll likely find me at CrossFit, traveling, taking photographs, watching movies, spending time with family and friends, or hanging out with my cat.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

If you’re here, chances are you’ve been carrying a lot for a long time. You may look like you have everything together on the outside, but internally you’re feeling overwhelmed, stressed, exhausted, anxious, or stuck. Perhaps you’re constantly overthinking, struggling to relax, questioning yourself, or finding it difficult to keep up with the demands of work, relationships, and everyday life. I believe therapy should be tailored to you. There is no one-size-fits-all approach, which is why I draw from a variety of evidence-based techniques to meet your unique needs and goals. Whether you’re looking to reduce anxiety, recover from burnout, improve self-confidence, or simply feel more like yourself again, I’m committed to helping you get there.
